Really hopes for great game with 4 goals into Burnley match

[kellzfresh 7,226]

It's official on skysports news, courtois starts.

[Barbara 15,149]

is it too much to ask that we win 7-0?

It's Burnley, not Brazil mate, so yeah, that's too much to ask

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Courtois

Iva-Cahill-Terry-Luis

Cesc-Matic

Salah-Willian-Hazard

Costa

Salah had a full pre-season whereas Oscar has been awful for the past 8 months and Andre is still not in full fitness.

Courtois starts.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Damn, just noticed Marin has gone out on loan to Fiorentina...was hoping he was gonna start this one

[Pizy 17,860]

Nerves starting to set in.

Have a feeling Burnley are going to be playing out of their minds and we're going to have a slow start.

Yea, the first 20mins or so that might be the case.. at some point the difference in quality will show.

The worst time to play newly promoted sides is at the start of the season and towards the end.

He has played in a champions league final. I'm sure he can manage a season opener vs burnley.

[DavidEU 2,023]

Anyone have any idea how Burnley will line-up?

[Atlas Lion 1,223]

He has played in a champions league final. I'm sure he can manage a season opener vs burnley.

A Europa League final, a Copa Del Rey Final, and a League final at the Nou camp to add.

Yes, but how will he do on a cold, rainy night in Stoke?

Am I the only person chuffed that someone like Bojan is playing in Stoke. He's not a perfect analog for Messi but he's pretty close, so we might finally get an answer to that much asked question.

Also on a fairly clear if brisk afternoon in Stoke, Cech made a howler so it's not the be all and end all.
